Holy copper thieves Batman!

good lookin'

Stealing copper from a church is pretty methed up.

Obviously they didn't see that coming.

Cu in hell, guys...

...from heaven.

carrion_luggage: Wow, Zach Galafinakis and that angry doctor from Scrubs have really let themselves go.

I was thinking Joaquin Phoenix.

Darn the Bishop and the Church Police.
We will conclude this arrest with a hymn.

Really guys? You hit the same joint three nights in a row, and it's a church, and you are stealing copper?

Talk about horrible thieves.

First one looks like apostle

Wicked?! Wicked is the cop in FLA who had a 14 year olds DNA on his sex toy, yet still has his job.

The comments on that article are deranged.

Is it really stealing when Jesus removes copper from one of his churches with the help of his disciples?

/Jesus looks like he needs sleep. And less meth.

Dimensio: Would not a properly scoped rifle have accomplished the same objective while simultaneously resulting in less expense of city money?

Scoped rifles don't have speakers.

The one on the left....I can't stop looking at that mole and the guy on the right....not sure which eye to look at??

$50k in damages...

Surely the pastor could have found some members of his congregation willing to lie in wait with clubs and bats. These two guys probably don't have $50k to fix the damages but their organs could probably be auctioned off to desperate 1%ers.

What's so special about mugshots of a couple tweekers?

14 year olds, dude.

i remember reading in the bible how jesus told everybody to throw all the sinners in jail. yah, that's it. i think it was right after he welcomed the moneychangers to the temple potluck.

These meth-heads are only a symptom of a larger problem, which is a giant infrastructure that benefits tremendously from their actions; from the greedy recyclers who know the vast majority of the scrap they buy is stolen, to the cops who completely ignore it as petty crime but insist on deploying swat teams to arrest pot dealers.

A little schadenfreude sure tastes good though. If they had threatened those gentle non-molesting lambs of god and were beaten savagely with crosses, I guess I would be OK with that.

This might fall under the "Render unto Caesar" clause.

Jesus said to forgive sinners, but also try to have them change their behaviors. He said something about giving food to the hungry and the cloak off your back, but he didn't say anything about ripping out copper piping in "his house" to further sinful ways. If you're that far into meth, you're destroying your "temple".

Jebus, someone should really do something about people stealing from churches.

/no, really

H31N0US: What's so special about mugshots of a couple tweekers?

I've seen better looking heads on mugs of beer.

The damage will likely add up to more than $50,000.

This is the damn problem with copper thieves. They got maybe $200 worth of copper at most, but caused massive amounts of damage to get at it.

jesus has returned, as a copper thief?

god help us......

The article reminds me of why I wanted to move out of that shiathole
The comments remind me why I did, Sacto people are every bit as mean spirited as they come across

According to their dogma, their "god" could have spared ALL of us this mess by using a baby monitor way back when, rather than allowing a serpent into the nursery. Talk about negligent.

(Just in case you forgot that it's all about the money and influence.)

look like a couple of methheads to me

My thoughts too. If it wasn't ok with god, he would have prevented it. Right?

The one on the right has some serious congenital issues. Damn, what is that, XXY?

Does this church pay taxes? If not, the police shouldn't be showing up.

Inflatable Rhetoric: My thoughts too. If it wasn't ok with god, he would have prevented it. Right?

Lol. "Freedom of choice" and all that crap. Hoping you overlook the fact that their "god" was free to choose as well. And look at the choices he made. According to "his" rules, "his" own son (or sliver of "his" fractured identity, according to which offshoot you follow,) had to come to Earth and die in lieu of our "sins".

And just where was "god" while the serpent was doing its job? Brewing some celestial tea? Taking a heavenly dump? Maybe "he" was dealing with some astral Seventh-Day Adventists on their gleaming silvery bicycles.

I wonder is Mary consented to becoming pregnant and having a baby. Never heard much about that. Is god a rapist?

Duuuuude!!! I never thought of that! I had always assumed that Mary just had a fling with a local goat-herder, and then told her fiance, Joseph, "But, I'm still a virgin! Its... an immaculate contraption! Yeah, that's the ticket! An... angel appeared to me and, uh...told me I was going to bear the Son of Ghod_TM. Yeah! That's the ticket!!!

*TWEEEEEEEEET*

Unsportsmanlike conduct on the offense. Invoking the image of Keanu Reeves yet using the style and "voice" of a Jon Lovits SNL character! 15 yards from the spot of the foul, loss of down.

I was hoping someone would have photo shopped jusus' beard on the bald guys head by now...

Helter Skelter!!!

Has anybody checked to make certain that the churches clean copper clappers haven't been clipped?

/I suspect Claude Cooper of Cleveland.

Paul Rudd after living in a cave for a year.

I can't be the only one who was hoping the "latest technology" was electrifying the copper can I?

Digitalstrange: I can't be the only one who was hoping the "latest technology" was electrifying the copper can I?

The problem with that is if you are using the piping as a conductor you will be replaceing the piping very often it would deteriorate the copper too quickly and you would have leaks constantly.

yes, but i'm sure he didn't gloat when evildoers were caught, nor high-five the apostles while talking about how the wicked were going to get what was coming to them.

Butbutbut their "god's" got multiple personality disorder!!! Why can't I bring multiple personalities into play?/?

Running 220 at 30 amps through the copper would have been more effective and entertaining.
